Uhh… you can resell a disc based one, doing it do a downloaded one wheter still under license or not, is all hells kind of illegal. Because one’s a license, which can usually never be sold or transferred, but each specific contract you agree to specifies this
That’s a textbook circular argument. You’re trying to argue that things are licenses because they’re licenses.
We know your angle and game.
What, standing up for property rights? Do you have some sort of problem with that?!
You can’t even rip the disc and then try and sell that,
Yes you can! If you don’t keep the original (or any other copy) for yourself. Then you’re actually selling your (albeit format-shifted) copy, not making new copies (plural). It’s doing things that increase the total number of people who have it that makes copyright law kick in; otherwise it’s just reselling an individual good.
And yes, the same applies to a downloaded file. It’s still just format-shifting!
If you think that’s wrong, cite the “all hella kind” of laws it breaks. Surely it’ll be easy for you, being so confident.
